The Windows 'Did you know' Thread
Post all your did-u-knows in this post. For replying to a certain entry, please quote it. All irrelevant or bad entries will be removed. this is supposed to be a neatly organised topic etc etc yada yada Ok here goes :)
Did you know?
- You can take a screenshot of the active window only by holding <ALT> when pressing <Printscreen>
- Most windows utilities can be easily reached from the command-line (Start»Run). For example: sndvol32 for Volume Control, snrec32 for Sound Recorder, charmap for Character Map, taskman or taskmgr for Task Manager, calc for Calculator, mspaint for MS Paint, notepad for Notepad, iexplore for Internet Explorer, winword for MS Word, cleanmgr for Disk Cleanup, osk for On Screen Keyboard, and so on and so on.
- You can easily access control panel windows from the command-line too. For example: desk.cpl for Display Properties, appwiz.cpl for Add and Remove Programs, sysdm.cpl for System Properties
- Some control panel windows can be opened even more easily, for example Date and Time Properties can be opened by doubleclicking on the clock in the taskbar, and System Properties can be opened by right-clicking on My Computer in the Start menu and selecting Properties.
